School is finally starting up. I need a reason to get out of my house. I haven't left much due to unpacking and taking care of Zoe.
I wake up at around five and sit in my bed meditating to calm my nerves for the first day. After about half an hour I get up and go over to the mirror on the far side of the room. I brush my shoulder length hair, covering the left side of my forehead. I go over to my dresser, finding a pair of dark blue jeans and a dark purple t-shirt. I look at my wrist checking that I had on five black hair ties. I put on a necklace, it was simple, a black string knotted in the back with a small amber colored glass bottle on it. It was a gift from my grandma. I put in my earrings and walked downstairs to get some coffee.
My mom was already up sitting on the couch with her cup of coffee. I walked into the kitchen, grabbing my favorite mug. It was a tall cup, made of fine bone china; it was decorated with Van Goghs' 'Starry Night' painting on it. I drank the bitter liquid slowly so I wouldn't burn my mouth as I walked into the living room to sit with my mom.
Throughout the first four of my classes I managed to avoid the four boys and learn all of their names.
When lunch came around I decided to do some research. I went to the library and quickly logged into a computer. The first page was the Park High website. I quickly went to the student tab, finding a calendar and a student hangout. I made an account with my name before making an account with a false name. I changed the date stamp on it.
When I finally got home I ran upstairs. I logged onto my computer to see three messages the first was shockingly from Craig.

Hey Aless, I don't know how I haven't found your page sooner but I was wondering if you could help me find out some information on the new girl. Her name is Sam.
I smiled slightly at the fact that he wanted information about me. I decide to wait for a while before giving him any information on me, only to make it seem like I had to search for the information I was giving him
I answered more people's questions before I finally got back to Craig.

I found out a few things about her, but she doesn't have much. She has two siblings that no longer live with her family. I couldn't find out the reason though. She is from Ohio, and does multiple sports. If you want to find more information on her you should talk to her yourself. –Aless
I didn't have to wait long for a reply.

Thank you for your help. Do you know where I could find her?
I don't want him to come to my house. I would stay here unless I had a reason to leave. I snuck out a few days after I 'met' Craig. I found an abandoned tree house when I was climbing in the woods. I had fixed it up and made it a spot for me to go when I needed. I put a mattress, blankets, and spare cloths in it.

Sometimes she goes out at night. I see her go past my house. I don't know where she goes though. –Aless
My dad called me down for dinner. I hate family dinner now because I don't have my siblings here to stop my dad from saying certain things.
"So Sam, have you met anyone yet?" My dad asked. I knew he didn't care that much. I nodded eating my pasta. My dad didn't seem to like my silence, that or he's drunk. He slapped the side of my head causing me to fall. "Answer with words. God damn it I didn't raise you to be silent."
"Yes sir." I reply forcing myself not to cry.
"Go to your room," My dad almost yelled, "You are a disgrace." I shuffled past him avoiding his kick.
As soon as I close the closet door, I lock it. I go up the stairs grabbing my school bag and slipping down the pipes outside of my window. I headed in the direction of Starks Pond. I wasn't even focused enough to see the dark blue eyes following me from a certain house.
A/N: The next chapter might have parts in Craig's point of view. Also, I had to rewrite this seventeen times. I couldn't choose what I wanted to happen. I don't think the next chapter will take as long to write. Please review so I know what to fix. Thank you, bye for now.
